MECHANISM FOR SOCIAL CHANGEMECHANISM FOR SOCIAL CHANGE
CONCLUSIONCONCLUSION The holistic approach must be used not only in
peace building process but also in sport programs themselves.
Healing is the first step to re-build relationship in order to achieve a social change. Sport is proofed to be a very feasible tool to achieve this progressive outcome.
Favourable government policies and development of best practices allow the contribution of sport to be much more significant.
